MK K2747WHI 13A Double Switch Socket

The 13A rating indicates each switch is suitable for up to 13 amps at 230V. This covers common household appliances like lamps, televisions, and small kitchen appliances when wired correctly. Avoid loading both outputs beyond their combined capacity.

Key features include: a white finish, 2-gang configuration, surface-mount design for easy fitting, 13A load handling, push-button operation, flame-retardant material, and a child-safe shutter for added safety.

Ensure power is OFF at the mains. Remove the existing device, then mount the MK K2747WHI in a suitable back box. Connect the live feed to the common terminal of each switch and attach each load wire to its respective switch output. Secure the assembly and fit the faceplate. The package includes screws and fittings for easy fitting.

It's designed for indoor, dry-location use in living rooms, kitchens, bedrooms, or similar spaces where you want to independently control two devices from one plate (e.g., a lamp and a TV, two lamps, etc.).

Yes. It uses flame-retardant material and includes a child-safe shutter. It is designed to meet standard electrical safety expectations for UK installations. As with all electrical fittings, have installation performed by a qualified electrician if you’re unsure.

Keep the faceplate clean and dry, wipe with a dry cloth as needed, and inspect for any signs of damage or overheating. If you notice scorching, discoloration, or a loose faceplate, stop using it and have it inspected or replaced by a professional.

A double switch socket provides two independent switches on one faceplate, allowing you to control two loads separately without using two separate devices. It’s a compact solution for managing two circuits from one location.
